A rectangle measures 15.25"X 17" . How large of a circle will fit through it.
------------
There's no "through" for a rectangle. It's a plane figure.
---
What will fit in it:
A 1" diameter circle will fit in it.
And a 2" diameter circle, also.
---
If you mean the largest, you should say that.
The largest is 15.25"
